OTI MABUSE has dropped the biggest hint yet that she is to quit Strictly Come Dancing.
Rumours have swirled that the dance pro is leaving the BBC hit since she signed up to judge on Dancing On Ice. And this week she was unveiled as host of new ITV dating show Romeo & Duet.
She said: “There will be an announcement made later. As a person in entertainment, I want to learn and grow and do as much as I can for as long as I can.”
Oti won Strictly with Kevin Fletcher in 2019 and Bill Bailey the following year.
She added to her telly CV with stints on The Greatest Dancer and, in May last year, ITV’s The Masked Dancer.
Oti said: “I’m really excited to be here on Dancing On Ice, doing what I love.
“I can’t give a tease because it always get me in trouble, and I don’t like getting in trouble!”
Big sister Motsi, a judge on Strictly, has given her some tips.
Oti revealed: “She said to be myself, say what I see and feel and what I would love to feel between two people dancing. You want them to get better.
“Everybody wants to go through that ride until the end and I am hoping that I can help.”
